School Accepts
New Telescope
The University’s proposed sci
ence building has been assured of a
new custom-built telescope, Dr. A.
E. Caswell, head of the physics
department, disclosed recently.
Contributions from friends of
the University have made it pos
sible to purchase a reflector type
telescope, which will be one of the
finest of its kind, Dr. Caswell said.
Ten-year Fund
The original gift for the instru
ment, to be constructed for the
dome of the new science building,
was made ten years ago by J.
Hugh Pruett, Eugene astronomer
and former University faculty
member. Pruett gave the school
$1000 for the fund, now known as
the J. Hugh Pruett telescope fund.
. Within the past few months,
with the possibility of the new
science building coming close to
a reality, several Eugene business
men have added to the fund.

Delta Zeta House
In Equity Procedure
The Oregon Construction and En
gineering company has filed a com
plaint in equity in the Lane county
recorder’s office requesting a fore
closure on a mechanics lien and a
judgment of $11,455.17 against the
Omega chapter of Delta Zeta al
umni association.
The complaint was made in con
nection with the remodeling of the
sorority’s house on the campus in
which they agreed to pay for the re
modeling on a cost plus fixed fee
basis.
The complaint said that cost of
the work totaled $27,521.56 and
that $11,455.17 of this sum has not
been paid. Also involved as a de
fendant is the Security Savings and
Loan association which, the com
plaint alleges, received a mortgage
of $25,000 on the land and building
in April, 1946 and an additional
mortgage of $30,000 in September.

Student Union
(Continued from page one1
dent Union was again listed as a
campus building project.
Since then, government loans,
plans, campaigns, and other finan
cial help have brought the possibil-'
ities of a Student Union nearer.
Poll Conducted
A campus poll conducted in the
spring of 1944 determined what the
students thought was needed in the
building. From this poll, the main
facilities to be included were decid
ed upon. Rooms for social purposes,
artistic or cultural purposes, inspi
rational purposes, and food service,
meeting rooms and offices, club ser
vices and conveniences, game
rooms, athletic services, and facil
ities for the maintenance and opera
fees, and the $5 building fee, stu
dents may now turn over their
breakage fees to the fund.
When the building is completed,
it will serve as an informal educa
tional center, joining the academic
and non-academic activities, thus
centralizing the student’s total
training program. It will be student
owned, student-operated, and stu
dent-inhabited.
MacGregor Predicts
(Continued from page one)
interview ended. “I saw the Oregon
New York University game,” he
said, "and the Webfoots ran the
socks off NYU. You know,” he add
ed, “a lot of New Yorkers' tiling,
there is no good basketball team
west of the Hudson" river.” Watch
ing Colonel MacGregor chuckling
over this last remark gave one the
impression that many basketball
fans in New York City had changed,
their minds.
As worthy grand chief of Alpha
Tau Omega, Col. MacGregor is tour
ing the northwest chapters of his
fraternity before returning to New
York. While in Eugene, he was the
guest of Karl W. Onthank, dean of
personnel administration. Friday
night a banquet, sponsored by the
University Interfraternity council,
was given in his honor at the Os
burn hotel.
